Jilted Bride 161

Chapter 161

Kenneth remarked, "Since you're fine, then get back to Milagia." Kenneth's words were so cruel, piercing straight into Phoebe's heart. The warmth she had imagined from moments ago vanished instantly. Phoebe's face went even paler, and she thought she must have misheard.

But seeing Kenneth's emotionless face, she confirmed that she hadn't misheard.

Did he ask her to go back to Milagia?

"Kenny... Ahem... What... What do you mean by this?" Phoebe asked, almost crying, her tear-filled eyes fixed on Kenneth.

Kenneth gave her a sideways glance and asked, "Do you really think you're so clever, or that this plan of yours is perfect? Do you think that by getting yourself kidnapped too, no one would suspect you?

"Have you ever considered the consequences of hurting Ophelia? Do you think I'd be afraid of the Davidson family?"

Those were the most words Kenneth had ever said to Phoebe.

But not a single word was what she wanted to hear.

"Kenny, is this really how you see me?" As Phoebe spoke, tears left trails down her pale face, and the bandage on her right

arm started to soak through with blood again.

She continued, "You know my status in the Davidson family. It was your grandfather who kidnapped me to make the Davidson family act against you, but I didn't agree. Kenny, you know I would never let anyone hurt you." Phoebe wiped away the tears on her chin with her left hand and shifted her shoulder, gasping with pain.

She added, "Ouch... Oh... If I really wanted Ms. Spencer to get hurt, I could have just not taken the bullet for her."

A fine layer of sweat appeared on Phoebe's forehead.

There was a brief silence in the ward.

After a while, Phoebe said, "Kenny, I know you're still upset with me, blaming me for always following Aunt's plans. To be honest, she did suggest I come to Heloria.

"But I promise, I'm not here to ruin things between you and Ms. Spencer. Trust me, I won't do anything to hurt her in the future."

"You better not," Kenneth said and looked at Phoebe with his sharp and cold eyes.

As he turned away, Phoebe noticed a small red mark on his neck
